Definitions

  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show the arrangement of the transfer cylinder on the printing machine in the sheet-receiving position (FIG. 1 and the sheet-transfer position (FIG. 2), all the details of the transfer cylinder and the setting device being omitted,
  • FIG. 7 shows a diagrammatic representation in the direction of the arrow VII according to FIG. 6.
  • FIGS. 3 to 5 The construction of the device according to the invention is now described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5 and the highly diagrammatic FIGS. 6 and 7, in which the parts corresponding to the parts shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 are provided with the same reference symbols.
  • the transfer cylinder 2 has a shaft 3 which is driven at a uniform speed and which executes N revolutions when the plate cylinder P is executing one complete revolution; if the impression cylinder D has the same diameter as the plate cylinder, this generally being the case, then this corresponds, of course, to one revolution of the impression cylinder. In principle, however, the impression cylinder can also have a diameter different from that of the plate cylinder. In the example according to FIG. 6, the diameter of the impression cylinder D amounts to only 1/N of the diameter of the plate cylinder P, that is to say the impression cylinder D is matched only to the size of a sheet and is exactly as large as the transfer cylinder 2.
  • this setting member 10 can be deflected somewhat in one direction or the other about the journal 11 out of the neutral position, shown in FIG. 3, in which its inner circumference 10a is concentric relative to the axis of the shaft 3, the result of this being, as emerges from the following description, a corresponding displacement of the drum 4 relative to the shaft 3 in one circumferential direction or the other.
  • the wheel 28 is driven by means of a gearwheel 35 which is arranged on the shaft 3 and which meshes with a gearwheel 34 of double its size on the axis 33, and via a gearwheel 32 which is arranged on the axis 33 and which meshes with the toothed driving wheel 31 and is half the size of this.
  • the wheel 28, which is the same size as the driving wheel 31, is therefore driven at a reduction ratio of 4:1 in relation to the shaft 3.
  • N stop parts 28a to 28d Fastened axially next to one another on the axis 30 of the wheel 28 are N stop parts 28a to 28d, the mutual angular spacing of which amounts to 360°/N, that is to say 90° in the example under consideration.
  • the amount of pivoting of the setting member 10, that is to say the maximum deflection, is defined by the eccentricity of the cam disk 9. This eccentricity is calculated so that the maximum permissible tolerances in the fastening of the printing plates on the plate cylinder can be compensated by correspondingly corrected sheet transfers to the impression cylinder.
  • the active stop 29b is displaced somewhat in the direction of the axis 30 relative to the position S1, so that in this case the transfer point of the transfer cylinder 2 is displaced somewhat in the direction of rotation of the latter.
